Is this a good gaming PC

[TinySpinkz]

Might be getting this gaming PC instead of PS4. Please give good answers and REASONS. Are these specs good enough to play:
DayZ: Standalone
Battlefield 4
Most steam games.
Modern games of 2014/2013

Here are specs:
8gb ddr3 1600mhz
Ati Radeon HD 8570D
1TB Hard drive
AMD A8 6600K Quad core processor CPU running at 3.9ghz.
500W Power supply

Thank you.

it's better for you to get the ps4. this is a entry level gaming pc and it won't even run bf4 properly on the lowest settings. you're better off with an ps4

 

[Entomber]

That should be enough to play most games at decent settings, but some of the newer games will be at lower settings to be playable.

That PC will suck. What is your budget?

 

[TinySpinkz]

Sorry didn't mean to pick that answer as the solution (damric) and my budget is £310

 

[damric]

With that budget you might want to get the PS4.

You should be able to pick a new solution now.

I was kind of hoping to stick with the gaming pc

Would i be able to play the games with low/medium graphics?

 

[damric]

If you change it to an A10 APU then you might be able to play at low, or at reduced resolution. You will be better off getting an intel haswell pentium and pairing it with an entry level gaming GPU like a GTX 750 or R7 260.

How comes on youtube videos these people are running games like battlefield fine regardless of the quality?

 

[damric]

lol, youtube videos. Go to a descent review site like techpowerup, Guru3d, or even Tom's Hardware.

lol did you not look at the settings in the first few seconds of the video?

That was a very clever marketing trick they pulled there.

True, thats why i have voted for best solution. you've been very helpfull.

I will just play high demanding game on LOW/MEDIUM difficulties then. Would that help?

Yes the APUs can do that. I would still try and get an A10 over an A8 as it has more graphics power.

Damric, you've been so helpful. Thank you for answering my questions.

Damric, you've been so helpful. Thank you for answering my questions.

Cool.

Oh, sorry I meant LOW/MEDIUM settings.
Can i run all demanding games on low/medium?
